Dough Bowl Styled for Easter, Dried Flowers, and More

The vintage dough bowl that belonged to my mother is one of my favorite containers to use when creating a vignette for a holiday or season.    It is a really BIG bowl and can easily handle the job of making  a statement on the long Farm table in the formal dining room.

I filled my dough bowl to the top with dried rose petals and flowers.    I was able to use the bed of dried flowers just like I would have used styrofoam......I just tucked larger dried flower stems into it.  

I wanted my centerpiece to look like a field of flowers ready for an Easter Egg Hunt,   so I placed fabric eggs on top of the dried flower bed.    I even thru in a couple of dried wasp nests to add a little whimsey to my design. 

I tucked some green moss into my design.....

And for a little more texture,   I scattered some small dried rose bouquets around the dough bowl.

My mom's dough bowl is so versatile........I've used it over and over to create my centerpieces in.    Here it is on the buffet in the sunroom styled for Easter a few years ago.....

I've had it on the coffee table in the sunroom styled for Easter in years past...... 

Here it is back on the buffet with a bee themed vignette in it.....

I used it in the entry one year.......

I loved it filled for the 4th of July one year......

And I've used it at Christmas many many times! 

Recently,   I used the dried flowers out of my dough bowl to create an Easter design in the Rose Cottage that's out in the back yard.     If you missed that post....here's a link to it.....http://penny-pennystreasures.blogspot.com/2022/03/the-rose-cottage-is-ready-for-spring.html 

I hope my post has given you some idea's on how to use your dough bowl to create vignettes in for holidays and seasons......hugs
